Rodri, Barcelona's midfielder, participated in the team's collective training sessions for the first time.
Rodri joined Barcelona during the summer transfer window, arriving from English club Manchester City.
Rodri missed Barcelona's match against Elche in the team's opening game of the Spanish La Liga season.
The Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo reported that Rodri wishes to play for Barcelona in next Thursday's La Liga match against Athletic Bilbao.
Rodri received an extended leave after participating in the 2026 World Cup with the Spanish national team and winning the title.
The Spanish star joined Manchester City in the summer of 2019, coming from Atlético Madrid for a fee of 70 million euros.
Over seven years, the Spanish star participated in 298 matches for Manchester City across all competitions, scoring 28 goals and providing 32 assists.
The Spanish star was linked with a move to Real Madrid this summer before Barcelona intervened to secure the deal.
Barcelona will face Athletic Bilbao next Thursday in a postponed match from the first round.
